Only figures on that list I have any interest in are the Last of Us show figures.

That line up is all funny ways of spelling Parappa the Rapper

Amazon charged me for the Joel and Ellie 2 pack. Hasn't shipped yet, but is supposedly arriving early next week. Excited to have it in my hands and finally see how these Spinmaster figs are.

It says mine are arriving tomorrow. I have the LIM versions, and those are great, but very delicate. Hoping these are as fun to handle as the rest of this line is.

Hmm. My Joel and Ellie set apparently arrived today but I won’t be home for several more hours. Looking forward to see how they turned out. 

Got around to opening Joel and Ellie the other day, and I'm quite pleased with how these turned out. They pose and articulate rather smoothly, but nothing feels too loose. Swapping hands was really simple, and it didn't feel like any parts or pegs were gonna break. They hold all their accessories really well (I think the inclusion of dedicated hands for certain weapons really helps too), and the likenesses and paint apps are great. Sure, the articulation is a little ugly in places, but I can easily overlook that if the rest of it holds up, which it does.

I'm pleasantly surprised, and how these two turned out definitely has me curious about the rest of the line. I'm sure it's happened, but I haven't personally seen or heard of any breakages on the wave yet. Not the best value on the market, but for all that you get and the quality, it really ain't bad.

Amazon has Kratos, Atreus, and Varl down to $21 for their daily deal. Debating the former 2 myself, but a good time for anyone who was waiting for a slight price drop to grab them.

Kratos is pretty awesome, he's real fun to pose around and makes for a great pocket figure imo. I still need to pick up the others though!

Hoping we hear something about wave 2 soon. Itching to get the rumored Nathan Drake…

Nothing new revealed at NYTF… just the current crop of figures in dios…

Was disappointed at the lack of reveals at Toy Fair, but I don't entirely know if I feel nervous just yet. It took them forever after announcing the figures to finally start showing them off. Heck, we didn't even get an official look at some of them like Joel and Ellie until they were basically shipping (we just had that leaked 3D render).

They seem fairly involved and detailed for small figures, so I'm sure that plays into the development time, and something tells me that Sony is probably pretty hands-on in terms of approvals and all that.

I do wonder how well they're selling, though. I still haven't seen them in stores (and I can't remember if they're even ever going to physical stores or are online exclusives), and I'm sure that's all playing into things.

It ultimately hasn't been thaaaaat long since the first wave came out. Definitely does feel like we should at least know what's on the horizon (no pun intended), and while we have some leaks/rumors, nothing confirmed. There's been long gaps between waves before with companies, and at least a lot of these games have the benefit of being able to sell product whenever- they don't necessarily need to fit into a certain time frame.
